Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10–15 minutes until warmed through. You can also reheat in an air fryer for a crispier texture. Avoid microwaving if possible, as it may make the wings soggy.
